The Franconian Museum Railway (German: Fränkische Museums Eisenbahn) is an association whose purpose is to preserve and promote interest in historic railway vehicles.

In this industrial city it aims to preserve the memory of the steam locomotive era.

The intention was that the association would not only preserve and document steam rail memorabilia, but also maintain historically authentic stock and operate special rail journeys to capture the "atmosphere" of steam rail travel.

The society owns the following railway vehicles:
